Rotel Dip Easy and Flavorful Cheese Delight
Ingredients
- 2 cans 10 oz each Rotel tomatoes with green chilies, drained
- 1 block 16 oz cream cheese, cubed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled ground beef (or turkey for a lighter option)
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
- 1 cup fresh corn (optional)
- 1 jalapeño finely chopped (optional for extra heat)

Instructions
- In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, add the drained Rotel tomatoes and cubed cream cheese. Stir frequently until the cream cheese is melted and well combined with the tomatoes.
- Once the mixture is smooth, add the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese has melted completely and the dip is creamy.
- Incorporate the cooked ground beef and taco seasoning into the cheese mixture, stirring until evenly distributed.
- If using, fold in the fresh corn and chopped jalapeño for added texture and heat.
- Allow the dip to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding salt or more taco seasoning if desired.
- Once hot and bubbly, remove from heat and transfer to a serving bowl.
